A statement by the senior special assistant on media and public affairs to the office of AMAC chairman, Kingsley Madaki explained that this win solidifies his position as the party’s standard flag bearer for the upcoming 2026 general election.

The AMAC Electoral Committee Chairman, Mr. Habib Ibrahim who announced the result on Wednesday urged all aspirants to accept the outcome and support the winner in good faith.

Notably, some prominent candidates stepped down in favor of Maikalangu, demonstrating the confidence and trust party members have in his leadership abilities.

On his part, the Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs, Hon. Zephaniah Jisalo, who is also the leader of APC in FCT, congratulated Hon. Christopher Maikalangu on his victory in the APC primaries.

Jisalo urged all aspirants and parties involved to accept the outcome of the primary election and support Maikalangu as the party’s flag bearer.

Maikalangu, in his reaction, thanked party delegates for their votes and support, while calling on other aspirants who contested with him to join hands with him to work together for the overall interest of the party and AMAC communities.

As the incumbent Chairman of AMAC, Maikalangu has implemented numerous developmental projects, enhancing infrastructure, healthcare, and education within the council area.

His commitment to the welfare of AMAC residents likely contributed to his success in the primaries.

Maikalangu’s strategic defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) earlier this year has paid off, as he has now won the APC ticket for the chairmanship election.

With this win, Maikalangu is poised to continue his tenure as AMAC Chairman, building on the progress he has made so far.

His victory is expected to strengthen the APC’s hold on the FCT, and he will likely focus on delivering more projects and services to the people of AMAC.

As Maikalangu prepares for the general election, he will likely focus on consolidating support from residents and further showcasing his vision for AMAC’s development.

With his track record and the trust of party members, he is well-positioned to lead the council towards greater progress and prosperity.
